It is time to reclaim our voice and our values in Washington. There is much at stake in this election, and we have a real chance to reclaim IN02.

Pat outlined it all in a Viewpoint article published Monday morning in the South Bend Tribune:

Throughout my campaign, and as your congresswoman, my actions will be guided by our nation’s essential belief in dignity and justice for all, and our recognition that individual freedom depends on pursuing the common good. This is not about conservative or liberal politics. It is about committing our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor to one another and our nation. It is time for a new representative from this district that will bring your voice and values to Washington. We must reclaim our seat in Congress — the People’s House. I ask for your vote and your help in the years ahead as we work together toward a more perfect Union.
